WTR54GS Makes It Easy to Create a More Secure Wireless Network
From Hotel Rooms or Coffee Houses

IRVINE, Calif., July 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Linksys(R), a Division of
Cisco Systems, Inc., the recognized leading provider of VoIP, wireless
and networking hardware for the consumer, Small Office/Home Office
(SOHO) and small business markets, today announced its newest router,
the Wireless-G Travel Router with SpeedBooster (WTR54GS). This new
high-speed, mobile router provides users the ability to easily set up
a wireless network in a hotel room or through a hotspot, such as in an
airport or coffee house.

The travel-friendly form factor includes a built-in power supply and
wireless signal antenna as well as a WAN port for connection to a
Cable or DSL connection and an Ethernet port for connecting an
additional wired device or computer. Users simply plug the router
directly into the wall with the built- in retractable two-prong power
adapter, and establish either a wired or wireless connection to the
Internet access offered by the hotel or other venue.

A unique feature, currently found only in the Linksys WTR54GS, allows
multiple computers to share a single wireless Internet access account.
This capability is ideal for those users with a subscription to a
wireless internet service who would like to simultaneously share their
account access with colleagues or friends at locations such as hotels,
airports or coffeehouses.
